To me this is a key change in a direct reports development. When they first start they need to be told what tasks to do; then they develop to asking for permission to do tasks that find or know need to be done; and…
it is full of bugs. on my tablet on YouTube I can't leave comments until I have tapped 20 odd smiley faces and waited 20 seconds to 2 minutes.
Always have blue ink on the side of my hand where I have dragged my hand across the page and through my writing. Fountain pens were particularly messy.
I am so glad Titchmarsh's trousers are a threat to the North Korean regimes hold on it's people. What else can we throw at them, Angela Rippon's legs?
Not even comparable. The amount the water companies have been draining into rivers and the sea around the UK is embarrassing, especially when they still pay out dividends to share holders while claiming they need more…
In the southeast of England where would this storage reservoir be?
I filmed it on my phone so I can watch it roll over later...
Why am I not surprised.
Yes the days of SCOC were great but the days of SCOX were dark. I left just before the Caldera take over.
They (imho) ruined Spitalfields market when it was developed a decade or so ago. A similar large open space market that used to serve indoor independent food stalls; a market and indoor 5 a side football. Half of the…
Never really felt the need but I suppose there has always been an updated_when field, so for something that is deleted the updated_when provides the time stamp.
I agree, programming is still fun. Problem is my job has changed due to my age and experience and has migrated into something I don't want to do or can't do that well, managing others and the project as a whole. I get…
'A'gile is broken and should be stopped. I am seriously considering doing something else than the job I love for the reasons in this post.
I think it is as much as where you consume it. Supermarket prices for alcohol have increased but no where nearly as much as in pubs and bars. So the drinking is happening somewhere else and not in pubs. The increase in…
Probably get burnt for this but too many animated gifs.
Agreed, so many times I've raised paging with an internal API provider only to be told they can retrofit it later if needed. Then you start to use production data and bam the one call doesn't work.
I would love to do that but unfortunately every organisation I've been in demands that I set them at the start of the year. Then at the end of the year I can reflect on all the goals that were no longer relevant because…
PM person, any chance of having a word with those who decided to charge the free gsuite plan users? I think I gave you over 10 years of free testing. I know I've had it good for for many years but I run my family email…
And if your company wants to "flatten the structure" running into that person is more likely and you will run in to them. I also have a problem with ex-developers who work their way up the structure with time. Generally…
I think SCO (SCOC not SCOX) ported so much of their own and MS stuff from Xenix 2.3.2 to 2.3.4 over to SCO UNIX SysV 3.2v2.0 to keep MS Word working I can well imagine (and I think I recall) that MS got royalty kick for…
At SCO in the mid-90s we were playing with very similar ideas to boost DB performance. The main motivation was the same then as it is now, don't block and avoid making system calls into the kernel once up and running.…
I think people forget what it was designed for. It was to reboot IT education which was (is) badly floundering. It's success was so good it started to be used in small commercial applications. The Foundation tried to…
Slightly further up the coast is Mersea Island. One road out to the island the Strood is tidal (https://www.visitmerseaisland.co.uk/blog/72-how-do-i-check-t...). Catches out visitors once or twice a year with the odd…
On a weekend just have to avoid the road there. Yes it is busy but what makes it so awful is everyone slowing down to 20mph so they can gawk at it. Then there is the inevitable shunts as someone forgets to brake in a…
I use Lombok all the time. Yes it has some awful bits but generally it's positives outweigh it's negatives.
